Pros clears a few pimples
smells nice
Cons doesn't prevent pimples from popping up again
leaves skin tight and dry WITHOUT moisturizer after
Bottom line I see a lot of people have been saying that you break out after using it once, and that is because every time you use a new product it charges through your skin layers and pushes the pimples deep down that are generating that would appear in like a week and just pushes them out. That's why you break out when you try a new product. I have been using this product for a LONG time. I am growing out of loving it because I need something a little more effective. Although, it is a nice product. BUT you DO need a good moisturizer after you use this. All these other people obviously haven't been moisturizing that's why they are getting the dry effect. MOISTURIZER IS KEY GUYS!!

Pros Cleared up a few pimples.
Breakouts didnt get much worse.
Cons Didnt clear enough pimples.
Skin got quite dry and tight.
After washing my face with this cleanser my face was red.
Bottom line Although this cleanser did clear up a few blemishes, it didnt fully do anything major. If anything it probably just keep them at bay for a little while.

Pros good smell
feels clean and gentle
Cons dries skin
Bottom line it works ok, yes, i still have some acne, but its not as bad as it was. The product takes away and prevents major pimples, but it doesn't seem to work as well on black heads, as i still have a large majority on my nose, and am getting new ones on my forehead. After only a week of using the product, my skin became extremely dry and flaky around my mouth, nose, forehead, and chin. My cheeks are also itchy. This is odd because i have an oily T-zone, and never had dry skin on my face before.I use a moisturizer for very dry skin right after using the product plus several times a day, and it hasnt helped.

Bottom line is, if you can bare having extremely dry skin, give this product a try.

Pros Smells good
Feels clean, when my face is WET.
Cons Makes skin feel tight
Doesn't help acne
Dries out skin
Bottom line It dries your skin like CRAZY. It made my cheeks read and itchy. I put moisturizer on my cheeks, where they were sore, and it started to sting like CRAZY. It went away, but I still feel sore.

Pros Cleared acne in a month
Gentle on skin
Can miss a day without major breakout
Smells nice
Inexpensive
Cons Dries skin out without any moisturizer
Bottom line I love this product! It's very gentle and I have combination skin, so it was very hard to find a good acne cleanser product for sensitive skin like mine. But, Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash is my new best friend! It has cleared up my skin amazingly and it's so gentle. The only bad thing about it is that it can dry out your skin if you don't apply any moisturizer on your face after washing it.

Cons dryness
itchyness
cracking
inflammation
small blister like spots all over lower face and neck
Bottom line 2 uses and my face was a mess - I am assuming this is an allergic reaction to something in this particular product. I have never reacted so poorly to any face soaps and am not allergic to any known foods or products. Other salicylic acid products have not bothered me, so I remain unsure of what particular ingredient caused this. Discontinued use immediately and after 4 days my face has still not recovered.

Pros - Smell
- Nice feeling after first use
Cons - Dry skin
Bottom line Do not use this product if your skin is not too oily.
I regret the moment I used it.

I can“t believe it doesnt advise you about it.

My skin is so dry and flaky after 1 week I havent used it. I have to apply orchidea oil and aloe vera every single day, three or four times per day, as I feel that my skin splits.

Normally, I like Neutrogena products. But this one is terrible!!
And I bought it at a Pharmacy, recommended by them!
Price paid $14.50
